Custom:

Custom telescopes can accommodate apertures of up to 6.5m.

As laser tracking grade instruments, sky accuracy of less than 2.5 arc sec rms is standard in useful sky zones, and tracking smoothness of 0.1 arc sec rms is achievable. Our solutions can include mobile systems for laser ranging with integral solar power and satellite communications for remote operation.
